Hybrid Tea • cv . WEKsiamia • Pat.#21,816

Monstrous buds & humongous blossoms of rich ruby red hold their
durable brilliance from beginning to end. Immense petals (just one
can cover a child’s palm) lend a classical Hybrid Tea bud shape,
slowly spiraling open to a ruffled whopper of a show-stopper. Large
lettuce-like leaves of an unusual red-green color gracefully enrobe
the long cutting stems—in perfect proportion to the flower. Most
massive in the spring.

Let Freedom Ring ™

Hybrid Tea • cv. WEKearman • Pat.#17,821
Many think the pinnacle of rosedom is a long stemmed red
Hybrid Tea with scrumptious big buds. But ponder the thought
a little farther to include impeccable flower form & great vase life.
Now you’re getting the idea of Let Freedom Ring. This striking
trophy-stealer was lovingly created by WWII veteran & amateur
hybridizer, Ernest Earman of Virginia. More red in cool conditions.
Fantastic year-round form.
Flower Color: Strawberry red
Height/Habit: Medium-tall / Upright
Bloom/Size: Large, double & high centered
(Around 25 petals)
